“In Bruges” is def. worth your time. It’s the best Colin Farrell movie in a while (faint praise??)

I haven’t heard about a specific studio exec pinned down by Cruise’s performance, but I bet they all shuddered a bit while watching it. If I hear something more on this I’ll update this review.

Hehe… I too noted the lack of McConaughy bare chest in this movie.

This may be the funniest movie I’ve seen in a couple years. Though I’ve heard “In Bruge” is pretty good – it’s in my Netflix queue.

I heard Tom Cruise is portraying a real studio exec… perhaps the one at Paramount? Any inside scoop on that one?

Tom Cruise’s dance scenes were worth the price of admission to this movie.

I agree, for the most part. I think their hearts are in the right place … no one should be bullying people who can’t defend themselves. But the knee jerk reaction taking place here isn’t appropriate, I think.

It sounds like the people picketing this movie are just going to end up looking re-

Silly. They are going to end up looking silly.
